GA Review

This review is transcluded from Talk:New Jersey Route 83/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

GA review (see here for criteria)

This article needs some work in order for me to consider this as a GA.

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS):
The prose is very messy, for example: You use "meets" many times in the description, try "intersects"; "oute 83 was originally legislated as a part of Route 49 in 1927", what does legislated mean?
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars etc.:
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall:
Pass/Fail:
My greatest concern is the prose, so I am putting the article on hold. ~~ C o m p u t e r G u y 22:16, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have gone back and made the suggested changes. Dough4872 (talk) 02:25, 12 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, to pass it, get a map in SVG form. ~~ C o m p u t e r G u y 23:11, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have put in a request for a map at Wikipedia:WikiProject U.S. Roads/Maps task force/Requests and I am still waiting. Dough4872 (talk) 02:25, 14 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

~~It has been almost 2 weeks, no map, failed. ~~ C o m p u t e r G u y 20:08, 22 November 2008 (UTC)~~[reply]

This article should not have been failed due to lack of a map. Articles are passed or failed according to the good article criteria, and in addition, there is nothing the nominator could have done to create a map. –Juliancolton ^Tropical ^Cyclone 20:34, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Okay then, still on hold. ~~ C o m p u t e r G u y 20:56, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The article has a map now Dough4872 (talk) 15:36, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article is now a GA. PASS ~~ C o m p u t e r G u y 00:26, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

USRD GA audit

This article has failed the USRD GA audit and will be sent to WP:GAR if the issues are not resolved within one week. Please see WT:USRD for more details, and please ask me if you have any questions as to why this article failed. --Rschen7754 (T C) 04:23, 5 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Is this because of the repetition in the route description? I'm a bit confused... –Juliancolton | ^Talk 04:28, 5 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I see.

Done. –Juliancolton | ^Talk 04:37, 5 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
